The people who decide who is allowed to sell food inside the San Antonio International Airport have moved forward with a motion from a San Antonio city councilman to ban Chick-fil-A from airport grounds, all in the name of inclusiveness. No, seriously:

A motion has been made to approve the Food, Beverage and Retail Prime Concession Agreement with Paradies Lagardère at the San Antonio International Airport, provided that it exclude the Chick-fil-A concept, officials say. https://t.co/kLyo9dQcx4

District 1 City Councilman Roberto Treviño made a motion Thursday to approve the Food, Beverage and Retail Prime Concession Agreement with Paradies Lagardère at the San Antonio International Airport, provided that it exclude the Chick-fil-A concept, officials said.

The amendment was approved by a vote of 6-4, according to the city.

“With this decision, the City Council reaffirmed the work our city has done to become a champion of equality and inclusion. San Antonio is a city full of compassion, and we do not have room in our public facilities for a business with a legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior,” Treviño said in a statement. “Everyone has a place here, and everyone should feel welcome when they walk through our airport. I look forward to the announcement of a suitable replacement by Paradies.”

Yep, nothing says “inclusion” like motions about who and what to exclude!

Without a hint if irony, the councilman that sponsored the motion to exclude Chick-fil-a for wrongthink was quoted saying, "Everyone has a place here." https://t.co/iRlviTePg2
